I've been doing some prototyping of some number crunching programs on Python, and I found that Python is consistently slower on my laptop on FreeBSD than when I boot into Windows. For example, one program takes 800sec to run on FreeBSD and 300sec to run when I boot into Win2k. I am wondering if I should try setting -03 in make.conf and remake Python and Numpy. Right now I have just -O. I thought chat would be a good place for this since I know some Python hackers hang out here. BTW, my 1.8GHZ P4 at work runs the same program in 180sec on WinNT4. My laptop here is a 1Ghz P3 and I set -march=pentiumpro in make.conf. Thanks, Rob. ps. the program is available on my website below as somnec.py. -- The Numeric Python EM Project www.pythonemproject.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
